Sexual Slavery: "Nothing to do with Islam"?

"They are also taught that white non-Muslims are easy, cheap, dirty sluts and that it is their right [to take them]. ... On top of this, teaching people to hate anyone who is not a Muslim -- as is done in many mosques -- will, of course, lead to a lot of people hating anyone who is not a Muslim. ... The problem, however, is also due to police, judges, lawyers, and teachers, fearing the words 'racist' and 'Islamophobe' -- and nothing is being done to stop that." -- Toni Bugle, women's rights activist, founder of Mothers against Radical Islam and Sharia, and victim of child-rape.

"When girls are raped, they are referred to by the rapists as 'white trash,' 'white whores' and 'white kuffir.' It is said to the girls quite openly. And the girls tell the police. Yet the assaults are never recognized as 'racially motivated. ... "I am sick of being told that I matter less because, I was born white, or that someone else matters less because he was born a different color. Such terms are themselves racist. People now seem to be using the race card to behave in the most appalling manner." -- Toni Bugle.

Many British girls still stay silent. The perpetrators threaten and intimidate them: "This would be enough to silence most girls. In addition, the police ignore the pleas of these girls, so they do not trust the police. I do think the silence of the community means it acquiesces."

In Islam, only non-Muslims may be taken as slaves -- a rule that is unfortunately only further evidence of a supremacist doctrine within Islam: that Islam is superior to other religions, and its adherents therefore entitled to privileges not afforded to members of other religions.

The sexual abuse of non-Muslim children and women at the hands of Jihadist groups such as ISIS and Boko Haram is not only a widespread practice in the Muslim world, but, sadly, has a lot to do with Islamic teachings.

Sexual slavery is deeply embedded in Islamic law and tradition. The founder of Islam also practiced and approved of slavery, as was more common at the time. Caliphs had harems of hundreds or thousands of young girls and women brought from Christian, Hindu, Persian and African lands.

Islamic slavery also was, and is, race-based. Umar, Muhammad's father-in-law and a caliph, declared that Arabs could not be taken as slaves; he even emancipated all Arab slaves. In Islam, only non-Muslims may be taken as slaves -- a rule that is unfortunately only further evidence of a supremacist doctrine within Islam: that Islam is superior to other religions, and its adherents therefore entitled to privileges not afforded to members of other religions.

This supremacist doctrine of Islam has brought non-Muslims centuries of persecution and institutionalized discrimination. Some have been exposed to brute force and had to convert from their native religion; others have been given the status of "dhimmis": third-class, "tolerated" citizens who have to pay a tax (the jizya) in exchange for "protection," never allowed the same religious rights or freedoms as Muslims. If they cannot pay the tax, they are to be killed or have their children taken from them.

All those practices indicate what Islamic rule brings for non-Muslims: death or a state-approved position of inferiority and humiliation.[1] One of the most appalling practices of the Islamic supremacist mindset was the institution of Janissaries established by the Ottoman Empire. For hundreds of years, Ottoman Turks took away the sons of Christians in occupied Europe and forcibly converted them into Muslim warriors (Janissaries).

There are about dozens of verses in the Quran and the Hadith referring to Allah's hatred for non-Muslims and the eternal damnation and punishment awaiting them in the afterlife.[2] Once Islam establishes political superiority, there is very little tolerance for people of other faiths or atheists.

As early Muslim armies used their swords to invade and Islamize non-Muslim lands, they enslaved non-Muslims, and even other black Muslims. Islamic scriptures approve of the rape of female prisoners who have very few civil or legal rights under Islamic law.

During 1,400 years of jihad and even today, the Muslim world is mostly apathetic and silent about sexual aggression. Many Muslims even try to justify it under Islamic rule. So now this practice is common not only in the Middle East, but also in Europe, including Britain.

In the midst of the complicit silence of many institutions, including the mainstream media in Britain, Bugle is trying to protect British children and women from rapists -- many of whom apparently have been Muslims.

As a victim of sexual abuse for two years from the age of eight, she was then gang-raped at the age of 15. Her rapist threatened to harm her family; she feared telling them, so she left home but eventually ended up homeless in London. She was exposed to physical violence, and witnessed her friends in the streets sexually abused and forced into prostitution.

"Not until years later did I realize I was reading patterns which were similar that are happening to girls all over the UK," Bugle said to Gatestone Institute. "I have also spoken to Muslim women, abused because of sharia law. I took one into my home. Her family were trying to use her to traffic people from Somalia to the UK."

A few months ago, a report found that between 1997 and 2013, at least 1,400 non-Muslim British children were gang-raped and brutalized by Muslims in Rotherham. Children as young as 11 were often gang-raped, abducted, trafficked to other cities in England, beaten and intimidated, according to the report. Authorities did nothing "for fear of being thought as racist."

Bugle remarked that not only does this political and religious ideology encourage Muslim men to rape non-Muslim children and women, but that Britain's submission to Sharia-inspired brutality seems to have several causes:

"Muslims believe they are at war with the West; and when in a state of war (jihad), they have the right to 'war booty:' that which the right hand possesses, sex slaves. They are also taught that white non-Muslims are easy, cheap, dirty sluts and that it is their right [to take them]. On top of this, teaching people to hate anyone who is not a Muslim – as is done in many mosques – will, of course, lead to a lot of people hating anyone who is not a Muslim. So the way many Muslims perceive Western women fuels the increase in rape incidents. The problem, however, is also due to police, judges, lawyers, teachers, to name but a few, fearing the words 'racist' and 'Islamophobe' -- and nothing is being done to stop that."

"The UK media refuse to use the term Muslim," Bugle adds. "But in London alone 27% of the inmates are Muslim, serving time for rape, drugs and violence. That is a massive percentage considering that Muslims are apparently only 4% of the overall population."

"When girls are raped, they are referred to by the rapists as 'white trash,' 'white whores' and 'white kuffir.' It is said to the girls quite openly. And the girls tell the police. Yet the assaults are never recognized as 'racially motivated'."

"I get death threats, rape threats, and sodomy threats - but never from non-Muslims. Muslims follow me on Twitter and Facebook and have immediately sent messages, calling me 'white bitch' and 'white whore,' and threaten me with sexual assaults."

Despite the enormity of the problem, Bugle notes that the media virtually ignore the Muslim rape epidemic in the West: "The media will rarely speak about it for more than one day. Rotherham was the only time they did, and they insisted on calling the perpetrators 'Asian,' not Muslim. And they never mention the link between these rape incidents and the Islamic teachings."

One of the few scholars who do expose the link between the two, Raymond Ibrahim, wrote in a comprehensive article about Islamic rape: "The ongoing epidemic in the UK, Scandinavia and elsewhere—whereby Muslim men sexually target white women—is as old as Islam, has precedents with the prophet and his companions, and, till this day, is being recommended as a legitimate practice by some in the Muslim world."

Despite the alarmingly widespread problem, many British girls, possibly partly from shame or concern that they might be thought complicit, stay silent. A stronger reason, according to Bugle, is that the perpetrators still threaten and intimidate them.

"This would be enough to silence most girls. In addition, the police ignore the pleas of these girls, so they do not trust the police. Also, apparently when parents were told that the girls were 'known prostitutes,' they were told that the girls 'would grow out of it.' These are just a few of the reasons they stay silent."

Bugle says she has

"emailed several 'feminist' organizations inviting them to speak out against sharia law, but each time they have not even answered. If you search for feminists standing against sharia law or the rape of predominantly white girls, she says, they will always tell you it has nothing to do with Islam. No matter how you try to explain that we wish to stand against all forms of misogyny, they do not want to accept facts. They refuse even to address the problem. They say 'you cannot blame an entire community.' I do not blame an entire community and I do not think all Muslims are rapists or terrorists, but I do think the silence of the community means it acquiesces. To address an issue properly, however, one must first acknowledge and accept that there is a problem."

One of the main arguments of the apologists of extremist Islam in the West has been to accuse people of having "white privilege," an overtly racist term for advantages allegedly enjoyed by white people but that non-whites do not experience.

Bugle, a rape victim, opposes the term:

"I am sick of being told that I matter less because, I was born white, or that someone else matters less because he was born a different color. Such terms are themselves racist. People now seem to be using the race card to behave in the most appalling manner and because people fear being termed racist. I do not see skin color. Yet skin color is used to shut down debate and discussion. 'White guilt' is being manipulated to silence the masses. Whether you are black or brown or white, you should be proud of the skin you were born with; it was not a choice."

Bugle says her organization aims eventually to give a voice to every woman abused by sharia law, and a place to girls who are targeted -- first for being non-Muslim, and second for being white -- a place to come to. There, they will be able to talk with people who will believe them and will not blame them.[4]

She says she would like the girls to feel free of guilt, and to take back the control that was taken from them. "Perhaps in the future we will be able to provide safe houses, phone help-lines and a sense of safety, and help them to not remain victims, but in time to become survivors. Not all will survive but those who do will one day help others."

When the organization held its first conference on August 29, two of the speakers were Muslim women. One of them was a victim of sharia law, abused and beaten by her husband who called her "filthy kuffir" and refused to even consummate the marriage. He said a he had wanted was the visa. He then said, "I divorce you" three times, took all of her money and left. The organization intends to hold another conference, also with Muslim speakers, in Rochdale around mid-November.

Britain -- with all of its institutions, says Bugle -- should act to protect children and women from rapists. No matter who may feel hurt or offended, she says, nothing is more hurtful than innocent women and children being raped, pimped, tortured and trafficked. "But first," she states, "we need a government with the moral fortitude to stop ignoring facts and constantly stating, 'This has nothing to do with Islam.'"

The taking of sex-slaves is part of jihad -- warfare against non-Muslims. Mohammed said "War is deceit", so deception of the victim in a love-trap is fine under Islamic rules.

Brits are crying but do little about Muslim domination in their own country. Have you lost your mind people? Appeasement means encouragement to Muslims because all they understand is force. You have democracy. Why don't you vote for people who will put things straight while still possible?

In the aftermath of the fall of Costantinople (29.05.1453) and that horrific slaughter Isis-style of its inhabitants perpetrated by Mohamed II, and the systematic rape of women and boys, crucifixions, impalements, e.g., in 1526 Suleiman the Magnificent entered Hungary. In few days Christian army was defeated, Buda burned down, and thousands of Hungarian slaves sold in the souqs of Istambul.During Islamic occupation of the country, millions of Hungarians were sold in the bazaars of Damascus, Baghdad, Cairo and Algiers.Long life to PM Mr Victor Mihaly Orban!

What can never happen is to not look at the problem and call it what it is; otherwise the problem will not be destroyed! Why put up with this kind of barbarianism, raping your children...Our children are what is precious in any Western culture. I don't know how the police or anyone else can abide this; you must stand up against this enemy and if it means deporting them, then do it! What do you care if your enemy threatens to call you racists! If they do, say 'so what, your behavior is racist because it targets those who are not Muslims'. And, certainly don't give them welfare; you give them welfare and they hurt all of you...send them back! You need to cleanse your country of an evil like no other. I have seen Muslims on the internet shouting "death to America, death to the" and they list all of the Western countries...when are the Western countries going to get smart and kick these parasitic barbarians out of their countries and form a coalition to hit them hard for attacking your countries and your citizens? You have done nothing to invite this horror!

Where are the parents of these rape victim children, young and old girls and adults? Do they, like the victims, sit idly by? Where is their outrage, concern, anger and care of their daughters of every age? It is hard to believe they will not be demanding more of the police, courts and government to protect them. Do those in the police force, courts and government not have children of their own at risk or even victims themselves? Where is the citizenry to take up arms and demand the government to protect them and their families? How is it possible they allow this criminality, brutality and desecration of their children and families to exist? Is it really possible the government and police would allow this just so as not to be called Islamophobic or racist? Perhaps in this case it would be an honor to be called Islamophobic and racist as there is a good reason to be just that.

Of course I am horrified by the facts represented in this paper, but lets look at the reality in the West. When Miley Cyrus can get a Grammy for "Wrecking Ball" because the song is lame and it is only an opportunity for her to act like a slut. What are uneducated emigres supposed to think it feeds their fantasies until they manifest in reality and liberal American society capitalizes on the prostitution of women, and turning teen age girls into idiot sluts? Madison Avenue, MTV and other businesses are making fortunes by exploiting and feeding teenage sexual fantasy at an age too early. I cannot say I am proud of it. But there is nothing I can do except register my concerns, and to be a better parent of my children, even if that means squaring off against public schools.

Osama and other wealthy upper-class Arabs who became terrorists have spoken about the Western decadence they experienced in the West. But when they return to Saudi air space, the women get modest and the men eyes front. They hold us responsible for seducing them with our decadent culture and then renounce it to the opposite extreme. I have worked with Saudi's who want to know where the good strip bars are and then ashamed blame the American culture for permitting them to debase themselves. They do not have a culture that requires people take responsibility for themselves in these circumstances. Unable to accept the dichotomy, they have arrived that self-control and living a life, that is the good life, they choose to live, they elect to become terrorists extremists because they demand an end to temptation. Debasing White women is just one aspect of a pathetic attempt to satisfy their manhood and debasing White women gives them a religious catharsis. Christianity has its pervert priests, adulterer ministers, and examples of the faith that fail just as Islam does. So far we have not experienced too many who who develop social pathology as a an expression of faith that is accepted.

I am not certain these "men" are capable of truly appreciating any woman except as stereotypes, it isn't simply that Islam has the capacity to create backward countries, but also men with arrested development. And the shooting in Oregon, was conducted by a gunman targeting Christians, it is interesting that fact has been buried by the media and the issue has been made one of gun control.

Miley Cyrus is evidence with her twerking routine, my acquaintances with a teenage daughter both found a horrible live routine and was so awful they had to watch it.

To be fair, our media sends mixed messages and until we grow more mature where the most entertaining and watched video is a teen age girl on a wrecking ball or in her underwear in a basement or twerking on stage in a series of scenarios that are perverse and pornographic in intent, as long as a starving child that can be saved for $.50 a day and more people will spend almost the same money to save a cat and ignore the starving child, even with an indictment as strong as this column presents, it is an up hill battle against not simply Muslims who cherish perversity but Western secularists, in truth they are birds of a feather.

Islam belongs to 7th Century Hejaz; it flooded out over 1400 years and now constitutes a quarter of the planet's population threatening all cultures around the world. Advanced cultures' survival is now dependent on its defeat. Since it is abhorrent for humanity to regress, Islam must be exposed for what it is. To do this the Left has to drop its use of Islam as a tool serving its agenda. Perhaps Islam is the bigger threat to the world than global warming.

This reading is appalling, to think that the Western governments allow this sort of behaviour to go on beggars belief. To allow it for fear of being labelled racist says to me that the governments are no better than the perpetrators. Hitler believed White Arians were the master race. Some of the followers of Islam believe they are and are continuing down Hitler's path. This problem with Islam just shows to me as I have said before that it is an evil cult and how dare it be called a religion.

The article is right on the nail, and just shows the lack of courage by local and national government in tackling what is a predominantly Muslim attack on our society, through the rape and abuse, of mainly young white children. And when it comes to others being contacted and refusing to acknowledge what Muslims are doing to children, their response has been cowardly and thoroughly disgusting!

Those who refuse to recognise this problem don't deserve to be able to sleep at night. They either have no children of their own or no daughters or female cousins, friends, mothers. What is it the makes these people refuse to see what is happening?

Absolutely disgraceful behaviour by all who turn a blind eye to these crimes and who is guilty of carrying them out. Cowardice of the highest order and a treacherous approach to the safety of children in this country. I am thoroughly ashamed of all who deny this is going on in their towns and cities and somehow they themselves must surely be exposed for who and what they are? All that don't want to do anything and choose to hide the reality from the public which obviously includes our media outlets should be named and shamed for the cowardice they are displaying.

Any government official either local or national should resign immediately! It's time we voted for people with backbones instead of the jelly leg brigade in power that are thoroughly undeserving of a position of any kind! Cowards! One and all!

When looked at as a whole, Islamic theology creates a defective society.

Yes there may be plenty of pleasant Muslims, but that does not change the sum total what Islam creates.

Islamic maltreatment of women is clearly one, easy to see, end result of Islamic theology. Both Muslim and non-Muslim women are victims of the Islamic theological pathology.

Islam needs a reformation, or we need to buy our daughters burkas.

This describes the Islamic pathology. http://islamsfatalflaw.blogspot.com/

Lofven you are encouraging this by importing so many Moslems who are neither refugees or asylum seekers in the true sense. Syrian passports are easily obtained on the black market. You are bringing Savages into Sweden more and more instead of taking responsibility for your people and nation. Frankly like Merkel you are a laughing stock. I hope Putin gets to Sweden enlists the Swedish army to deal with the exponential Moslem problem you are bringing into Sweden.

Thank you (again!) for another great article. Here in Ireland, I have repeatedly asked schools, government departments, parliamentary representatives, etc., what happens if a young girl (10-16 years of age) goes "home" to a Middle Eastern (Muslim) country for the school holidays and does not return to Ireland. The response I have ALWAYS got is "Why do you want to know?", "What is your interest in this?", "What organisation are you from"? etc.

I have never been given an answer, and it is only too obvious that NOTHING is done. I have suggested that at least a form be submitted by the school, stating the position if a girl has not returned. The answer to that was "I know of only one case but no complaint was made". When I tried to explain that if the family is complicit in this, no complaint will ever be made, the response is "If you have a complaint send it in". I have repeatedly said that at the very least, it should be a legal requirement that a form should be completed and submitted to the authorities. Now I am looked upon as being a crank!!

It is just beating one's head against a politically correct wall. The sad thing is that the government is falling down in its primary duty -- the protection of its citizens. Éamonn, Dublin, Ireland.

I must say that I wasn't shocked by the response you have encountered, not in the least. It would seem the whole world has gone so PC that it collectively knows it must not, ever criticise Islam or Muslims. Fine, but know this: If we do not wake up and ban this cult -- it is the biggest threat to civilisation today -- there will be much pain to be had on both sides.

We, the normal people, have many good reasons to be Islamophobic. Specially in Britain, extremist Muslims use our freedom of expression to abuse, discriminate, curse and kill us if they can, but we are racists if we protest against this and the politicians do nothing at all. The origin of all this are the mosques where completely not integrated imams are spilling their hatred and supremacist doctrine to the ignorant public.

The imam had hardly any power half a century ago, but today, especially in Western Europe, Muslims are pressured to attend prayers in the mosques and are being poisoned by the imams and other extremists.

One would think that Muslim abide strictly to the Koran and follow its word, hence one should not be surprised about the treatment meted out to the non Muslim. Authorities are handicapped by a impasse of new speak, such as political correctness, multicultural and other such words.Muslims are not handicapped by such niceties. They know they act with impunity by "professional victimhood" and an entitlement to act to the detriment of their hosts, by making demands, by raping woman & girls by sheer aggression. The Authorities have been bludgeoned into silence or do as little as possible because the magic hammer words is being used: Islamaphobia & Racism. Yes, there are no more racist haters than Muslims who think of their own superiority as Adolph Hitler did. Same record different label. A good article to wake Europe from its stupor.

It is hard to defend people who have been attacked if the culprit cannot be defined easily. What they represent seems so vague. The goal posts are moved in terms of what they do and do not believe!

Some of the British government in the past and present are notorious for not protecting children and it looks like the Muslim women in Britain will not get protection in their "law courts" either!

The scale of the problem in the UK is hinted at by reports in local newspapers. I still get the Bradford local newspaper and the headlines there are horrifying, virtually every assault on a woman is committed by someone with a Pakistani name. People who only read the national press can have no idea of the scale of the problem. I assume the situation is the same in other regions, such as the East and West Midlands.
